Critic Reviews

Nader became famous as a "consumer advocate," but as the thrilling first hour of An Unreasonable Man makes clear, that humdrum bureaucratic term didn't do justice to his courage, his vision.Full Review

Owen Gleiberman
Entertainment Weekly

The film begins like a Frank Capra movie--pure-hearted idealist takes on corporate fat cats against impossible odds and triumphs--but ends like a Shakespearean tragedy.Full Review

Nathan Rabin
The Onion (A.V. Club)

Nader haters may not be mollified, but An Unreasonable Man, like its subject itself, is a one-stop civics lesson no one should miss.Full Review

Ann Hornaday
Washington Post

The '"unreasonable man" himself is interviewed, too, and he comes across as patient, articulate, and maddeningly uncompromising.Full Review

Ty Burr
Boston Globe

Those who love Nader will appreciate the respect and attention given his career. Yet others, even those for whom the mere sight of Nader's face is enough to cause a spike in blood pressure, will appreciate the film's evenhanded elucidation of Nader's faults.Full Review
